Valid DNS Domain Name Required

I'm installing Sun Java Enterprise System (the Application Server) using the wizard.
I'm asked to enter the DNS Domain Name, which I do enter but get the following error message:
Valid DNS Domain Name Required
The DNS Domain name Provided could not be validated.
The services being installed require a valid internet domain name.
Installation cannot proceed until a valid DNS Domain Name is provided.
I have checked /etc/resolf.conf and it contains the following:
domain myhome.westell.comnameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver 192.168.1.1
I've checked /etc/nsswitch.conf

and it does contain the line:
hosts: files dns # Added by DHCP
I wonder why the DNS Name myhome.westell.com is not recognized.
I do appreciate your kind help.

Indeed the file is correctly named as; resolv.conf
The /etc/hosts file contains the following lines:
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
myhome.westell.com192.168.1.45 emServer # Added by DHCP
However, I stil get the same error (original posting) from the wizard. It is taking me more than 48 hours to intall the Sun Application Server!
